Afield technician is responding to a ticket about an animated sign with double images.

Display burn-in occurs when a static image is left on a screen for a long time, causing the pixels to wear out unevenly and retain a ghost image even when new content is displayed. This issue can result in double images, where the "burned-in" stationary image persists alongside new, live content. This problem is more common in older displays or those used for static signage. Replacing the display cable or adjusting color settings would not address the underlying cause of uneven pixel wear, and burned-out bulbs would likely result in a loss of image clarity or brightness, not double images.
